Can Husband Sponsor His Wife For PR Without Marriage Certificate

[Amritpal]

I have a question regarding spousal sponsorship application. I and my husband only have record of marriage solemnization with us. We have applied for marriage certificate but not received yet. Can he sponsor me on the basis of marriage license document and record of solemnization?

No. Your husband cannot sponsor you without a marriage certificate. You need to apply for the official marriage certificate from the province in which you got married. You can apply online or via mail. Online is faster than mail service.
